How to Effectively Leverage Snapshots in Today's Increasingly Virtual World

Storage system snapshots have been a popular way for server and storage admins to rapidly protect data and enable recovery in minutes. Unfortunately, snapshots have lost much of their value due to the shift from physical servers to hypervisors.

Check out this white paper to learn about the VM-level snapshot, a way to deliver highly optimized metadata snapshots and clones on a per-VM basis, on top of a distributed, deduplicated, hybrid datastore.
